Mustafa A
So far, I have had four lessons with Mustafa, and I have found him to be really supportive and thorough. In my first lesson, he took the time to identify my strengths and weaknesses in GCSE Chemistry so that he could prepare future lessons to the topics I was least confident in.
Throughout our lessons, we have worked through each topic carefully, making sure I fully understand the content before moving on. I also asked if we could go through my Chemistry mock exam questions in an upcoming lesson, and he was very happy to do so, which made me feel really supported. He always finishes lessons with exam questions, which has helped build my confidence and exam technique. Mustafa has also discussed revision techniques with me, which I’ve found very helpful when studying independently.
If there is any content I don’t understand, he quizzes me and explains it clearly until I feel confident. As someone who isn’t always confident in my answers, I now feel much more comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. I look forward to continuing my lessons with Mustafa. Thank you.

Ffion W
Absolutely fabulous.. my daughter was in tears this week as her teachers at college refused to help , and isolated her from the class. Tonight after just one hour with Ffion, she has turned a corner for my daughter, going from feeling like a failure to feeling positive again and given her hope that she can do this. Cant thank her enough .. will definitely be booking her again.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at The Joseph Whitaker School. Can a tutor really help them get the GCSE grades needed for A-Levels?
Yes, absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents in Rainworth come to us. Our tutors are experienced in the GCSE curriculum and can create a tailored plan to target the specific areas your child needs to improve, whether it's Maths, English, or another subject. Their goal is to build both skills and confidence to help your child secure the grades they need for their chosen post-16 path.
We're hoping for a place at Nottingham Trent or the University of Nottingham eventually. Can tutoring now make a difference?
Definitely. Strong GCSEs are the foundation for a strong university application. By helping your child secure the best possible grades now, you're keeping their A-Level options open and setting them on the right track for applying to competitive universities like those in Nottingham later on.
How do I choose the best tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and teaching style for your child.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically ranging from £25 to £50, depending on their experience and subject level. You can filter your search by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an identity and background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
My child really lacks confidence. How can a tutor help with that?
This is where one-to-one tutoring really shines. In a private, supportive setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors are brilliant at breaking down tricky topics, celebrating small wins, and showing your child what they're capable of. This personalised encouragement often leads to a huge boost in self-belief.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a way to share documents and past papers. It has all the tools your child needs for a productive and engaging lesson from the comfort of your home.
How many lessons will my child need?
There's no set number. It really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students just need a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others benefit from regular weekly support throughout the school year. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
How long does a typical lesson last?
The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to properly tackle a topic without your child losing focus. You can, however, arrange different lesson lengths with your tutor if you feel it would be more suitable.
Is tutoring just for school subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While academic subjects are very popular, we have expert tutors for a huge range of skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find a brilliant tutor to help them.
Can a tutor help my child get into West Nottinghamshire College?
Yes. If your child is aiming for a specific vocational course at West Nottinghamshire College, a tutor can help them secure the necessary GCSE grades, such as a pass in Maths or English, that are often required for entry. They can tailor support to meet those specific course requirements.
